In this article, Su Yonglin wrote down the entire process of destroying the Song Dynasty, as well as the strategic considerations of the Ming Dynasty in destroying the Song Dynasty in three stages.
Even the Ming Dynasty's development of power within the Southern Song Dynasty, the instigation of Confucian scholars to join the Renaissance Society, and then a counterattack against the Southern Song Dynasty are also written in, and there is nothing hidden.
This is an upright and correct thing and should be known to future generations without any need to hide it.
Su Yonglin wants current and future generations to know that the Ming Dynasty's destruction of the Song Dynasty was not just a military victory, but also a political, economic, cultural and ideological victory.
The reason why the Southern Song Dynasty was eliminated was because the Southern Song Dynasty lagged behind the Ming Dynasty in all aspects and was beaten by the Ming Dynasty in all aspects. The Ming Dynasty's destruction of the Song Dynasty was the inevitable of the times, and it was one of the signs of the victory of the revolution.
The victory of the Ming Dynasty shines brightly!
After writing it, Su Yonglin ordered that the article be disseminated across the country through channels at all levels, so that people in all regions of the country could read it.
Then he ordered this article to be engraved into a monument and prepared to accompany the army. After the Ming army completely wiped out all the resistance forces, the monument was placed at the place where the battle ended as a commemoration.
In addition to these things, Su Yonglin also met with foreign businessmen living in Guangzhou on a large scale and had in-depth conversations with them just like when he was in Quanzhou.
There are merchants from the Li Dynasty of South Vietnam, merchants from the Angkor Dynasty known as the Chenla Kingdom, people from the Champa Kingdom, people from the Srivijaya Kingdom, and even the Gur Dynasty who occupied northern India. Coming businessman.
They have different nationalities, different races, different identities, different languages, and completely different beliefs. However, in Guangzhou, they can generally live in peace with each other and do not cause trouble.
Most of these businessmen have mastered the ability to speak Chinese, and it is not difficult for Su Yonglin to communicate with them, so Su Yonglin is willing to talk to them about their hometown.
Especially the businessmen of the Li Dynasty of South Vietnam.
Su Yonglin believed that the Li Dynasty was currently the main threat to the Ming Dynasty in southern Xinjiang. Su Yonglin hoped to get some useful information from their merchants to judge whether the Li Dynasty had any intention to go north.
Through conversations with these Li Dynasty businessmen, Su Yonglin learned that the current political situation of the Li Dynasty was stable, and there were no major turmoils within the country. It was in a period of peace and stability.
At the same time, the Li Dynasty also had a clear understanding of the series of wars that took place in the Central Plains and Jiangnan.
They know the general history of the rise of the Ming Dynasty, how the Ming Dynasty overthrew the Jin Kingdom, captured Liaodong, and destroyed Xixia. They also know about the Ming Dynasty's war against the Southern Song Dynasty.
Then the businessman praised the Li Dynasty for its abundant products and high grain output. At the same time, he admired the culture of the Central Plains and wanted to have close and friendly exchanges with the Central Plains. He hoped that after the Ming Dynasty unified the world, it could also maintain friendly exchanges with surrounding areas.
The businessman obviously didn't say much, nor did he let Su Yonglin clearly know what he wanted to know.
As for the internal news about the Li Dynasty, Su Yonglin learned about it through reports from the local Skynet Army.
Through the efforts of the local Tianwang Army, Su Yonglin learned that since the Ming Dynasty forced the Southern Song Dynasty to cede Guangzhou, the Li Dynasty knew the fact that the Southern Song Dynasty was suppressed by the Ming Dynasty, and thus increased its exploration of the Central Plains news, and also investigated the Ming Dynasty. The state has a very strong vigilance mentality.
The main reason is of course "Hongwu Political Treatise" which has been circulated in Guangzhou Port for several years.
The content of this book was so exciting that it was brought to South Vietnam by local businessmen from South Vietnam and businessmen from the Ming Dynasty who were part-time agents of the Skynet Army, and it has been circulated in a small area.
Of course, it is mainly spread among the literate groups in South Vietnam.
The upper and middle class of South Vietnamese society also use Chinese characters that can read and write. They can understand "Hongwu Political Treatise" without even needing a translation. This is the benefit of cultural influence.
Therefore, the upper class people in South Vietnam were greatly shocked after reading "Hongwu Political Commentary". Most people thought that the Ming Emperor Su Yonglin was a madman and might have some serious illness.
Everything is written in the book, everything can be said, and it can be published and sold publicly. I am afraid that people will not know the rules of dynasty and power, and I am afraid that people will not know what is going on in the power circle...
Can this be advertised widely?
They feel that if someone eats the contents thoroughly, they may turn the bones and use them as skulls, and they will rebel in minutes to show you.
Sensing the seriousness of the problem, Li's court immediately ordered a complete ban on "Hongwu Political Treatise" and was not allowed to spread it privately. Anyone found to be involved would be killed without mercy.
This is a very fundamental reason.
In addition, the Li Dynasty respected Confucianism. Starting from the Tang Dynasty, they studied the political system of the Central Plains dynasty and used Confucianism to govern the country. They also had imperial examinations and tested Confucian classics.
Although Li Tianzuo, the "emperor" of the Li Dynasty, admired Buddhism, Su Xiancheng, a capable minister with a status comparable to Zhuge Liang in the Li Dynasty, highly praised Confucianism and advocated the ethical relationship between monarch and minister under the Confucian ideological system. Li Tianzuo did not object to this, as Confucianism is the only It was the orthodox thought of the Li Dynasty in South Vietnam.
However, this was not the case in the Ming Dynasty. The Ming Dynasty liquidated Qufu, denied the application of Confucianism in the field of governance, determined that Confucianism was sinful, and used a set of revolutionary ideas created by itself as the official ideology of the country.
So for the Li Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty was tantamount to a heresy.
Now the entire high-level power circle of the Li Dynasty is also constructed through Confucianism as an important medium. Once the Ming Dynasty intervenes and replaces it with their set of rules, everyone will be revolutionized.
It was "Hongwu Political Treatise" again, and it was denying and liquidating Confucianism. The Ming Dynasty was simply a heresy among heretics, and it was a terrifying country.
This is the unanimous view of the monarchs and ministers of the Li Dynasty of South Vietnam.
That is to say, the Ming Dynasty was powerful and could crush the Southern Song Dynasty into scum, so the Li Dynasty did not dare to complain to the Ming Dynasty openly, otherwise they would have jumped up and confronted the Ming Dynasty passionately.
Su Yonglin didn't find this surprising.
Including Goryeo and Japan, these countries in Greater China that were influenced by Confucianism did not dare to say anything publicly after the Ming Dynasty publicly opposed Confucianism and created their own governance system, but they had long internally Ming Guo cursed him to the sky.
These things are not secrets within them, and they have no sense of confidentiality at all, so as long as they send people to contact them internally, they can get similar news feedback. This also makes Su Yonglin clearly feel that Ming Dynasty is currently isolated internationally. situation.
Their rulers are not stupid. They are frightened by the powerful national power of the Ming Dynasty and will never dare to force them. However, out of fear of the same situation, they will never accept the spread of this kind of thinking internally. .
It is said that Goryeo and Japan have already banned any form of copies of "Hongwu Political Commentary" from being circulated in the country.
They may not understand why Su Yonglin wanted to create a theoretical system and rebuild a new society, but this does not prevent them from being physically disgusted with Su Yonglin and Ming Guo.
Although on the surface they still want to respect the Ming Kingdom as their suzerain state and accept the Ming Kingdom's policies, they have long been wary of everything in the Ming Kingdom.
The confrontation between the two sides has actually begun in invisible areas.
This was true for Goryeo and Japan, and so was the Li Dynasty of South Vietnam.
But unlike Goryeo and Japan, given the current situation of Goryeo and Japan, they did not have the military capabilities to threaten the Ming Dynasty's frontiers, while South Vietnam did.
Goryeo's military force was weak and Japan was divided internally.
South Vietnam has a unified central government, internal conflicts are not enough to threaten the unified central power, and it has sufficient military organizational capabilities, as evidenced by its previous military victories against the Champa State.
Although South Vietnam may not send troops to provoke the Ming Dynasty, how can it allow others to sleep soundly beside the bed?
